Shower pan flood testing
Our client is now tiling her own shower with a little guidance from us and some smart material coices.....she also just left us a glowing review on our Houzz site. Thanks Alison/Tim.
Heres a hybrid Custom neo angle 4x4 flood tested install. In Europe, Canada, Australia and many US cities Tile shower pans must be Flood tested for a 48-72hr period before any tiling can commence. This Guarantees the homeowner there are no
"Does your shower smell mildewey? Mouldy?
"here we are flood testing the shower pan"
"Protecting weep holes is critical"
A quick HOW To measure a proper shower flood test:
The goal is to verify that the pan is watertight, this means all the corners (inside and outside) and the drain to waterproofing (liner) connection. As well we must make sure the weep holes are allowing water to pass if you are building a full mortar bed pan . Most new modern waterproof shower builds are what we call "Topical or Surface applied" membrane showers that do not employ weep holes. (Pictured above is A mix of the 2 methods and this version is called A thinbed that employs A weep hole divot for the clamping drain.
**** NOTE: Let me preface by saying the water test is done PRIOR to tiling. If you are building the above mentioned Full mortar bed older type shower pan it is done BEFORE the top layer of mud screed is poured. There is little chance youll get an accurate reading when the mortar bed is soaking and wicking water and that goes for cement board walls as well. The pan should be tested at the Liner stage with no mud bed and no wall boards touching the water level as we don't want those elements giving a false read. The test shown above is A topical waterproofed shower so we are able to test at this stage for an accurate reading with this type of build. ******
1. The drain should be plugged with a test plug BELOW the actual drain connection ( i.e. Mission coupling or glue connection) and down into the riser pipe this way we are checking the actual plumbing drain connection as well as the tile membrane/liner to flange connection.
2. The shower should be filled with water up to the finished dam height just spilling up onto the curb or threshold. You should be testing the shower dam inside/outside corners but many guides will mention you need to fill the shower no more than 2" deep and this in many case will not fully test the threshold or "curb".
3. Most industry specs call for 48-72 hours of full flood test but your inspector may settle for 24 hrs and we all know the inspector Wins!.
4. Utilizing an additional Evaporation test to monitor loss in conjunction with the filled shower pan. (2 tests)
- this means we are also looking at ambient room temperature conditions as well and comparing the 2 tests for evaporation. It is not uncommon to lose A VERY SMALL amount of water level if its an unusually dry or windy environment. I.E. fans/air movement love to throw these tests off so keep that out of the equation as this can throw the measurement off and give you a false reading .
- This second test can be as simple as A tupperware dish or sauce pan filled with water and left in the bathroom next to the shower pan flood test. Now we have 2 points at which to compare any small loss.
- OK how do we measure accurately?? Great question.
****Tip: Once you verify the shower is watertight and you pass your inspection you need to make SURE ALL the water drains and that there are no "Bird baths" or low spots in the showers grading ( preslope ) holding back or pooling any water, The pan should completely drain and dry out rapidly.

Basement tile Steam Showers : Always a challenge
"Recessed slab on grade shower"
"Custom steam shower framing"
"Added property value"
" 12x24 rectified porcelain tile "
There is a good amount of pre project math, layout, and dozens of decisions that need to be made before all else....This curbless shower has .... steam, chromatherapy lighting, proline linear drain, A rain head, 7' long bench, shadow box niche, and custom shelves......... this all requires extra pre project planning and layout.(experience and know how).
Here: Tundra finish works handled all the pre project design and planning for the homeowners based on their visions........We lucked out with a neat well informed residential client couple that has the budget to realize their relaxing steam shower as these buildout's are tricky time consuming and can get expensive, you want to get it right the first time and we can help.

Wedi tiled shower Minneapolis St. Paul
Heres a very nice yet basic travertine 1/2 bath for our happy "Repeat client" in Bloomington, MN.
This shower was flood tested for 3 days prior to tiling.
This shower was flood tested for 3 days prior to tiling.
There is an overwhelming amount of ways to build waterproof Tile showers. Every shower is custom and different and Tundra Finish Works can adapt to every situation via experience!
While Wedi waterproof showers are not the best for every situation, they can equate to speed and quality plus a full system warranty.... If you are in a hurry to get your bathroom back ! Wedi just may be the system for your home. ( this is an ideal choice for condo/high rise & fast track situations as well). Some tile contractors offer up 1 way of doing things. Tundra Finish Works is experienced in 100% waterproof custom tile stone and marble installations.
When Installed properly Wedi can give you, the homeowner "peace of mind" knowing that when water gets thru your grout or porous tile (and it will if you do not maintain your investment) it simply has nowhere to go but directly down to the drain never having a chance to penetrate the wall or ceiling cavity, thus speeding up the daily dry time..

November 29, 2010
As of November 7th, the total U.S. public debt outstanding reached an astonishing $13.7 trillion. This means that although Congress just raised the debt ceiling to $14.3 trillion back in February, the new Congress will face another debt ceiling vote almost immediately next year. Otherwise, the Treasury will not be able to continue issuing debt to fund government operations.
The upcoming vote will provide an interesting litmus test for the new Republican congressional majority, especially those new members closely identified with Tea Party voters. The debt ceiling law, passed in 1917, enables Congress to place a statutory cap on the total amount of government debt rather than having to approve each individual Treasury bond offering. It also, however, forces Congress into an open and presumably somewhat shameful vote to approve more borrowing.
If the new Congress gives in to establishment pressure and media alarmism about "shutting down the government" by voting to increase the debt ceiling once again, you will know that the status quo has prevailed. You will know that Congress, despite the rhetoric of the midterm elections, is doing business as usual. You will know that the simple notion of balancing the budget, by limiting federal spending to federal revenue, remains a shallow and laughable campaign platitude.
Of course congressional leaders-- now Republicans-- will tell America that they plan on balancing the budget soon, but they just need some time. After all, we have to keep the government open, right? We can't have an "emergency" shutdown of vital government services. But somehow Congress always finds money for emergency spending, in the form of supplemental appropriations bills for TARP bailouts, troop surges, and the like. Why is there never an emergency that justifies less spending???
Surely we are facing an emergency debt spiral, as evidenced by the Federal Reserve's recent commitment to buy another round of Treasury debt. It's now quite obvious that the U.S. government plans to inflate its way out of debt, and the world is fleeing our dollar in response. Just 7 years ago Congress raised the debt ceiling to $6.4 trillion, which means the federal government had doubled its indebtedness in less than a decade. Annual deficits for 2011 and beyond are projected to be at least $1 trillion. By contrast, the entire federal debt amassed from the founding of our nation until President Reagan took office in 1981-- a period of roughly 200 years-- was $1 trillion. So it's no exaggeration to state that federal debt is growing exponentially.
I have two simple proposals when the new Congress convenes in January. First, refuse to raise the debt ceiling. Find a way, month by month, for Congress to spend only what the Treasury raises in revenue. Second, start over from scratch with the 13 appropriations bills that fund the federal government. Reject any talk of baseline budgets or discretionary spending. It is all discretionary, and members of both parties should vote against any 2012 appropriation bill that is not at least 10% smaller-- in nominal dollars-- than its 2011 counterpart.
A motivated Congress could begin to slow the tide of debt by taking the simple step of cutting federal spending by 10% across the board for the next few years. Let's hope it does not take the complete collapse of the U.S. dollar to provide this motivation.Back To Ron Paul's Instablog HomePage »

I would be interested in reading how other conservatives react to Mr. Bartlett's opinion, set out below, on the topic Congressman Ron Paul discusses in his SA article. Bruce Bartlett is clearly a conservative to the core but, in my judgment at least, one who doesn't let his policy objectives get in the way of clear thinking about what should and should not be done in pursuit of those objectives. This capacity to remain grounded in the real world is one that we all, wherever we fall in the political spectrum should cultivate.

Cirilo Castillo Jr: Accused of Multiple Counts of Horse Sex
Cirilo Castillo: Hide yo' sheep, hide yo' mares, he (allegedly) rapin' everthang 'round there.
If the comment sections of Rio Grande Valley newspapers are any indication, Hidalgo County is regarded as something of a rustic backwater by its more urbane neighbors. Stories like this one sure can give a stereotype like that some legs.
Yesterday afternoon, 41-year-old Cirilo Castillo Jr. was arraigned on two counts of trespassing and two counts of animal cruelty after a local rancher captured him on video having sex with one of her mares.
The woman had gone to authorities on December 30. The surveillance tape she brought cops allegedly shows Castillo entering her barn without permission, tying the mare to a fence and then lashing its legs together, presumably to prevent him getting a swift kick in the nuts. (We can but hope that was a lesson he had to learn by painful experience.) And then Castillo is reportedly seen dropping his pants and having sex with the mare.
Cops recognized Castillo, who has a long record of weed and harder drug offenses. They picked him up on Tuesday, and he confessed to that stump-breaking episode, as well as at least one more, at a ranch a mile or so down the road.

According to the McAllen Monitor, another rancher had told police back in November that he had caught a man named Castillo having his wicked way with his mares on no fewer than four occasions. That man later picked Cirilo Castillo out of a lineup.
A commenter at Valleycentral.com recalled a similar area case from a few years back:
I remember when I was working at Chanell 4 a few years back, there was a man who was arrested for the same crime in Hidalgo Co. The owners of the horse would notice some cinder blocks would stack up during the night and remnants of carrots and apples were found by the horse. So they set up a security camera in the stall and voila! Perv was caught!
No word on whether Castillo was as willing to wine and dine the mares on the receiving end of his vile horsing around, nor if he left any tell-tale stepping-stones behind.

In Japan, that dream is becoming a reality, as the author Soseki Natsume, who died a century ago, prepares to enjoy a second coming: "Soseki Natsume is being re-created as an android by Nishogakusha University Graduate School, and will be programmed to read material out loud and give lectures. Created in a sitting posture, the robot will be 130 centimeters high and built using 3D scans of a death mask and vintage photos … The robot's voice will be created after analyzing the voice of his grandson, Prof. Fusanosuke Natsume of Gakushuin University. Fusanosuke Natsume said, 'Since [Soseki is] a human being, it is better that he is smiling.' "

Hamilton's Black Power, meaning his assignment was essentially to turn a whole political movement into a book cover. And he succeeded, as Josh MacPhee writes: "The cover was simple yet profound: a white field, the center crowded—almost to exploding—with the giant words Black Power in a thick, slab-serifed type. The authors' names and book subtitle stack above and below, in a more elegant, thin sans-serif. That's it. No images, no frills … The cover to Black Power is surprisingly successful, such a simple treatment—almost elegant—for a text that caused massive conflict and defines the transition from the non-violent Civil Rights Movement to the much more militant Black Power Movement in the United States. The initial 1967 Random House first-edition dust jacket was created by Larry Ratzkin, a well-known graphic designer who turned out upwards of a thousand book covers … All U.S. editions of Black Power in the almost fifty years since its initial publishing … have used facsimile re-creations of Ratzkin's original design … This has to be the most seen and trafficked cover of Ratzkin's long career, yet it is never associated with him."
- Two hundred years ago, Mount Tambora belched a massive cloud of volcanic ash into the sky and ruined everyone's summer, so much so that they called it the "Year Without Summer." Perhaps not unrelatedly, Mary Shelley began work on Frankenstein: "Our too-easy version of Frankenstein—oh, it's all about technology and scientific hubris, or about industrialization—ignores completely the humanitarian climate disaster unfolding around Mary Shelley as she began drafting the novel. Starving, skeletal climate refugees in the tens of thousands roamed the highways of Europe, within a few miles of where she and her ego-charged friends were driving each other to literary distraction. Moreover, landlocked Alpine Switzerland was the worst hit region in all of Europe, producing scenes of social-ecological breakdown rarely witnessed since the hellscape of the Black Death."
- London's Foundling Museum is hosting an exhibition called "FOUND." It's about finding things, which, at the risk of being obvious, tends to involve losing them first: "Some found materials have been made into complete works, like the African textiles from Portobello Market that have inspired much of Yinka Shonibare's art, including the Trumpet Boy ... Or Polly Apfelbaum's string of wishbones, graded from small to large, 'electroplated like baby-shoes' in copper—a string of good luck. But there's bad luck here too, like the chain of pawnbroker's tickets that Ron Arad found in London early 1970s. All are dated 1951, the year of his own birth, and many are marked 'GWR'—gold wedding ring. Finding can provoke a shiver, a sadness."
- Zadie Smith introduces one of her favorite new writers, Rachel Kaadzi Ghansah: "I'm sure she is coolly skeptical of the phrase black-girl magic … but some version of that is what Rachel brings to me. I was very affected when I was a kid by a phrase of novelist Zora Neale Hurston's, 'The black woman is the mule of the world.' This is not the only truth about us, and Zora is proof of that: despite all the difficulties, she lived her life with verve, purpose and joy. Rachel's got some of the Zora energy; she walks into a room and it's a kind of event. I've learned from Rachel that black culture is a house with a thousand rooms, with windows looking out on so many views. Her writing is like a high-wire act: Can she pull it off? Are these swirling ideas going to cohere? But they do. I admire her bravery, boldness and attention to the craft."
Jumping from Bridges
May 26, 2016 | by M. F. K. Fisher
This essay by M. F. K. Fisher appeared posthumously in our Spring 1995 issue. Fisher died in 1992. Her previously unpublished novel, The Theoretical Foot, was released earlier this year.
Now I am thinking about jumping from the Golden Gate Bridge, and about other places where people have jumped to their deaths for many years. I think I should find out more about this, for I have an idea that there is some sort of collection of spirit strength or power or love in them that says no, or yes, or now.
I feel very strongly that this is true about the Golden Gate Bridge. Today, I heard that people are trying once more to build a kind of suicide-prevention railing along its side, which would keep us from seeing the bay and the beautiful view of the city. I haven't read much about suicide lately, but I believe that almost 98 percent of such deaths leave more evil than good after them. Even my husband Dillwyn's death, which I feel was justified, left many of us with some bad things. And when my brother died, about a year after Timmy did, my mother asked me very seriously if I felt that Timmy's death had influenced David to commit his own suicide, which to me remains a selfish one, compared to the first. I said, "Of course, yes! I do think so, Mother." And I did think then that Timmy's doing away with himself helped my young brother David to kill himself, a year later. But there was really no connection; we don't know what the limit of tolerance is in any human being. Read More »
Pockets—They're Still Great! And Other News
March 23, 2016 | by Dan Piepenbring
- The cafard and mirthlessness that have long governed French philosophers have now extended to French writers of all kinds—a new survey says they've never been unhappier. Their proposed solution? Surrender. "French writers have never felt more badly paid, undervalued, or under pressure … More than half of established authors earn less than the minimum wage. Many are so depressed by the state of the book industry that they are considering giving up altogether, according to a new report that canvassed more than 100,000 authors of fiction and nonfiction … Although exact comparisons are difficult to make, French writers appear to be still doing better than their British or American equivalents."
- BREAKING: Nicholson Baker loves pockets. Give him a good pair of pockets, he's happier than a pig in shit. And who isn't, really? You gonna look me in the eye and tell me you don't like pockets? "I'm a pocket-loving guy," Baker says in a new podcast. "At any moment I got a couple pens—like why would you have just one pen? For a long time I tried to do everything with pockets … the pocketing of things. The prestidigitational trickery of being able to move things from the world of public visibility into a private place. It sort of feels to me like writing. Or I guess, what I like about writing, is that paragraphs take your most personal observations, or embarrassments sometimes, fantasies, whatever they are, and you fill them up, and it feels as if you're putting them away or you're stowing them, you're pocketing them. But then because of the weird and wonderful act of publishing, you're making public what you have hidden."
- Terry Southern's letters are full of the humor you'd expect from him, Will Stephenson writes—but as windows into his personal life, they're curiously opaque. "There's something cold about Southern's persona, in other words—he's always in character, always on. The letters come complete with scenes and dialogue—a voice that's arch and faux-pretentious, recalling the comedian Lord Buckley—and his habit of signing them under false names only thickens the fog. Reading the book, I wondered whether Southern would have really wanted to see it published, or whether that matters. I wondered whether I even liked Terry Southern anymore, having read it … The majority of these letters, though, have to do with the labor and economics of writing … In some ways, this is the major theme of the collection—where is the next check going to come from?"
- Alex Mar on Doreen Valiente, once dubbed "the mother of modern paganism," who believed that witchcraft was simply a means of accessing one's own power: "One particular image of Doreen Valiente tells two unresolvable stories at once. In this black-and-white portrait, perhaps taken in the fifties at her home in Brighton, she is, at first glance, a suburban wife seated before a pale curtain, wearing a patterned cocktail dress, a string of stones around her neck. (She was in her thirties then, her jet-black hair cut short in a wavy bob, her lips and brows painted in.) But then the photograph becomes complicated: spread before her on a table is an altar laid out with a crystal ball, a bowl, rope, candles, and incense; in one hand she holds up a large bell, in the other a ritual knife … She is the Nerd Queen, a person of rare esoteric knowledge. She is Doreen Valiente, the Mother of Modern Witchcraft … 'I had never felt any objection to working in the nude,' she writes. 'On the contrary, it was fun to be free and to dance out the circle in freedom.' "
- I consider it part of my job to keep you abreast of quiet advances in the robot-writing community—so you should know that artificial intelligences can now write well enough to make headway in literary contests. "In Japan, a short novel co-written by an artificial intelligence program (its co-author is human) made it past the first stage of a literary contest … Humans decided the plot and character details of the novel, then entered words and phrases from an existing novel into a computer, which was able to construct a new book using that information … The prize committee didn't disclose which of the four computer co-written entries advanced in the competition. The Japan News reports that one of the submitted books is titled The Day a Computer Writes a Novel, which ends with the sentences 'I writhed with joy, which I experienced for the first time, and kept writing with excitement. The day a computer wrote a novel. The computer, placing priority on the pursuit of its own joy, stopped working for humans.' "
Dord, and Other News
February 24, 2016 | by Dan Piepenbring
- Foupe, adventine, dentize, kime, morse—these and other non-word words have made their way into English-language dictionaries over the centuries, blurring the line between errata and neologisms. Philologists call them ghost words, and they're mainly the result of printers' errors. Jack Lynch writes of the most famous example, from 1934: "Webster's included many abbreviations in its wordlist, and the compilers planned to include the abbreviation for density … One lexicographer—Austin M. Patterson, special editor for chemistry—typed a 3" × 5" card explaining the abbreviation: he headed it 'D or d' … But when it came time to transcribe the card, someone misread it and ran the letters together without spaces, producing 'Dord, density' … The entry made it into the dictionary as 'dord, density.' It took five years for a Merriam editor to notice the strange entry … The printer removed dord from the next reprint, filling the otherwise empty line by adding a few letters to the entry for doré furnace."
- While we're on dictionaries: Are they sexist? Well, yes. Are they irretrievably sexist? That depends … "Feminists and linguists have been talking about the sexism that lurks beneath the surface of dictionaries since at least the nineteen-sixties … In 1987, the radical philosopher and activist Mary Daly wrote an entry for a word of her own coinage: 'Dick-tionary, n: any patriarchal dictionary: a derivative, tamed and muted lexicon compiled by dicks.' Rooting out the sexism in dictionaries was a priority for feminism's second wave. The nineteen-seventies and eighties witnessed a profusion of alternative volumes like Daly's, which highlighted biases that belied mainstream dictionaries' descriptive ideals … The choices about what to include in a dictionary, like the construction of any historical record, are, arguably, inherently political … Feminist linguists argue that, in some instances, lexicographers should put a thumb on the scale."
- Today in love and the arts: Georg Friedrich Haas, a world-renowned composer, sent an OkCupid message to his future wife. "Wow—your profile is great … I would like to tame you." Thus began a different kind of courtship: "In a joint appearance with his wife, who now goes by Mollena Williams-Haas, late last year at the Playground sexuality conference in Toronto, then in an interview this month in the online music magazine VAN, he has 'come out,' as he put it, as the dominant figure in a dominant-submissive power dynamic. Mr. Haas has chosen to speak up … because he hopes to embolden younger people, particularly composers, not to smother untraditional urges, as he did … Williams-Haas, who described the situation as feminist because it is her choice, said, 'I find intense fulfillment in being able to serve in this way.' She conceded the discomfort many may feel with a black woman willingly submitting to a white man … she added, 'To say I can't play my personal psychodrama out just because I'm black, that's racist.' "
- The other nontraditional composer in the news is the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, which has recently detected gravitational waves for the first time in history and converted their signal into audio. "When we listen to the waves that LIGO first played for us, we can tell that the system is quite heavy, since the signal ends a bit lower than middle C on the piano. If the system were lighter, the waves would have ended at a higher pitched note … We know we can hear these waves now, and we want to make our ears better … We want to hear the ghostly whispers of the earliest moments of the universe's expansion. We want to listen without prejudice and to hear things that for now we can barely imagine."
- If space sounds make you anxious, turn your attention instead to Japan's Kamakura Period (1185–1333), serene statues from which are now on display at the Asia Society of New York: "These mesmerizing sculptures show the sacred being standing quietly above an opening lotus blossom, and dressed in monk's robes whose folds fall in a cascade of graceful waves. Their power to entrance arises from the near-perfect balance of motion and stillness, symmetry and asymmetry, they display. They do not move and yet they seem to radiate peace … Kamakura statues are miracles of technique. Carved in wood, and hollowed out so that the skin of the sculpture in some parts is not much thicker than cardboard, they weigh almost nothing. They hover on the verge of immateriality."
The Nose
January 26, 2016 | by Dan Piepenbring
A lot of things are a century old this year: Boeing, Roald Dahl, the Professional Golfers' Association. Another is Akutagawa Ryūnosuke's short story "The Nose," published in January 1916 in a student magazine called Shinshichō.
"The Nose," which bears no relation to Gogol's famous story of the same name, is a pretty standard parable about vanity. It stars Zenchi Naigu, a Buddhist priest with a massive schnoz—he needs aides to hold it aloft with a stick during meals. This is, as you can imagine, kind of unseemly, so Naigu undertakes a series of drastic schnoz-reduction measures, only to realize that his newly unembellished nose makes him even more self-conscious than the original had. He tries to catch a cold so his nose plumps up again. It does. He is at peace. And—scene! Read More »
The Art of Investing, and Other News
January 25, 2016 | by Dan Piepenbring
- Today in translating bugs: The Irish writer Lafcadio Hearn's Insect Literature (1921), newly reissued, reminds that certain literary tropes are far from universal: "Yoko Tawada recently remarked that one of the difficulties she faced when translating The Metamorphosis into Japanese was that the associations Japanese people had with insects—even presumably giant beetles—were different from those of Europeans … In Japan, Buddhism teaches that a person might be reincarnated as any kind of animal or insect, creating a strong sense of continuity between the human and insect realms. That butterfly flapping above your head may contain the soul of a deceased lover … Humans (in the West at least) had, [Hearn] argued, become numb to the magic and horror implicit in the daily lives of insects."
- Want to support the work of young artists without pumping capital into the infernal machine that is Big Finance? Invest in Sarah Meyohas, whose first solo show is up now: "Meyohas, who studied finance at Wharton and recently received an M.F.A. from Yale, is known for creating a cryptocurrency called BitchCoin. Here, she cheerfully explains to visitors that she is using her laptop to buy and sell stocks on the New York Stock Exchange. Every day she selects a company for which little or no trading is happening, and with her own money she buys stock in that company, which drives up its price. This precipitates a sell-off, at which point she may or may not buy more stocks. After cashing out, she takes a black marker and draws a line on one of the canvases, loosely tracing the stock's price line during the time she invested in it."
- Tim Parks does a close reading of Primo Levi in translation, looking at what changes in his prose and why: "The fact is that much space is required to say anything even halfway serious about a translation. For example, the three volumes of Levi's Complete Works include fourteen books and involved ten translators … While Levi liked to describe himself as a writer with a determinedly plain style, the truth is rather different. Often a direct, speaking voice shifts between the colloquial and the literary, the ironically highfalutin and the grittily scientific. It's true that there are rarely serious problems of comprehension, but the exact nature of the register, which is to say the manner in which the author addresses us, the relationship into which he draws us, is a complex and highly mobile animal. It is here that the translator is put to the test."
- In Medieval Graffiti, the historian and archaeologist Matthew Champion studies the long history of defacing English churches and the thin line between desecration and devotion: "Rarely were these marks and messages removed or written over by other parish members, showing a sign of respect and acceptance. Curiously, many of the graffiti traces discovered by Champion relate to curses, magic, and more pagan practices than are often connected with Christianity … It wasn't outside the realm of belief that a symbolic carving in this sacred space had transformative power."
- Diana Kennedy is a ninety-two-year-old writer living in Mexico City. She's also, as it happens, embroiled in a fierce debate about Mexican food writing: "Kennedy is far more than just a writer of cook books. 'All anthropologists and botanists, they ought to learn to cook,' she has said, 'or they will miss the whole point of how culture and plants and food come together' … There's probably no better contemporary book that illustrates the food/non-food question than Diana Kennedy's Oaxaca al Gusto: An Infinite Gastronomy. The book is exotic less for its unlikely ingredients, although there are plenty of them, than for its variety: throughout the province of Oaxaca, there are thousands of valley-specific dishes."

WHITNEY (June 13, 2014) A $700,000 vacation home perched on a crumbling cliff overlooking Lake Whitney was burned to the ground deliberately Friday.
An Austin engineering contractor that the owners hired planned to set the house on fire at around 10 a.m. Friday, but it was around noon before the house was torched.
Within 90 minutes, little of the luxury home was still standing.
White Bluff firefighters will standby to protect surrounding homes and structures and the Hill County Sheriff's Office will provide deputies for crowd control.
Once the house has burned, debris will be loaded into dump trucks and will be hauled off, Hill County Emergency Management Coordinator Tom Hemrick said..
The house was condemned earlier after a fracture appeared in the bluff on which it was built.
Soil and debris have been falling into the lake as the ground beneath the 4,000-square-foot home crumbles
The fracture has widened from a few inches on Tuesday to more than four feet Thursday, Hemrick said.
Officials were concerned that heavy rain from overnight storms would widen the fault-line further, which could be a catalyst for a collapse, but the house was still standing Friday morning.
Tax records show that the home in the White Bluff Resort subdivision near Whitney was built in 2007.
Robert and Denise Webb purchased it in 2012.
The Webbs have another home along Florida's Miami Beach.
They told WTSP-TV that it's hard to watch.
Robert Webb says geologists and inspectors, before the purchase, told them the property was perfectly stable.

Watch the weather. Rain can blow out the Creek in a very short time.
this lake will be drained for dam repair after May 15. We do not know when it will be restocked or reopened. Word is that it may not be full...
Upper 80's are in the forecast, should start to see more consistent PMD and Sally hatches showing up.
The North Fork is fishing phenomenally, so get out there!
Stream is still running high after our recent heavy rainfall. Water conditions probably won't reach fishable levels until mid-week.

Notes on Cardiff/
I'm back from my trip to Germany and the UK with twice as much work to do than when I left. Fun, great people, challenging questions, new research, and lot's of teaching.

Did You Know? Aerosmith's 'Dream On' Song was a Three-Year Nightmare, at First [VIDEO]
Aerosmith's "Dream On" was the first single from their debut album of '73, but not yet branded merchandise (Steven Tyler was just another name to most of us, and I even went to school with two guys wearing that name), the song fiercely struggled to crack the Top 60!
Aerosmith Live DVD Track Listing Revealed
'Rock for the Rising Sun,' the upcoming live DVD and Blu-ray from Aerosmith, will include many of the band's classic songs. The recently released track listing, which you can see below, reveals a set of 16 Aerosmith favorites. The DVD will also feature plenty of behind-the-scenes footage from the band's tour of Japan in 2011. The disc comes out on July 22.
Eddie Van Halen Gets a Visit From the Toxic Twins – Pic of the Week
Van Halen finally returned to the stage over the weekend (April 20) at the Stone Music Festival in Sydney, Australia and look who showed up for the festivities – Joe Perry and Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. Okay, in all fairness, Aerosmith was on the bill as well, but it still made for some great photo ops behind the scenes.
Steven Tyler Misses 'American Idol'
Aerosmith made a lot of fans happy when they ended a long hiatus by going back into the studio to make last year's 'Music From Another Dimension!' album, but now that he's been back in the saddle with his bandmates, it sounds like Steven Tyler is missing his former 'American Idol' coworkers.
Aerosmith, Jimi Hendrix Announce Record Store Day Exclusives

Legacy Recordings will be offering up vinyl exclusives on Aerosmith and Jimi Hendrix for this year's celebration of independent record stores.
Aerosmith Deny Rumors of Internal Strife on 'Global Warming' Tour
It might sell more papers to say that the members of Aerosmith are feuding, but the members of the band insist that a recent New York Post report alleging dissension in their ranks is way off base.

Kiss' Paul Stanley Says Aerosmith's Steven Tyler 'Needs a Reality Check'

Joe Perry Opens Up About His Guitar Hero: Retired Math Teacher Steve Rose
Growing up in the early '60s, one would think the Beatles were a heavy influence on Aerosmith's Joe Perry, and maybe later the Rolling Stones. While those bands may have paved a road for his group to follow, it was a local 14-year-old named Steve Rose that first inspired Perry to play rock and roll.
Cheap Trick Discuss Camaraderie and Competition With Aerosmith
With a cachet like Cheap Trick has, it's not frequent that they open for other bands, but the group just signed on for another leg of dates supporting Aerosmith and that suggests that camaraderie has eclipsed billing in terms of importance for the veteran rockers.

Travis Fain, one of the state's best political reporters, interviewed Fox News Host and Master Teabagger Sean Hannity about his role in tonight's Tea Party protest at the Capitol. It's an excellent interview and worth checking out mainly because he gives Hannity a fair shake and actually debates him.
TELEGRAPH: How many of the things that you and Rush Limbaugh, other talk show hosts how much of what you say is an absolute belief and how much is to draw in readers, listeners and viewers?
HANNITY: I can tell you Sean Hannity doesn't you know, everything I say is true. I'm surprised you'd even ask that question. You mean you think I would contrive opinion just to get reaction?
TELEGRAPH: I wouldn't say... I certainly wouldn't say that. But it is an entertainment business, although you're in the news business. There has to be a, sort of, flair to it. I'll give you an example if you like. ... Today on your show I heard you say that Barack Obama has this country headed for a total economic collapse, much worse than anything we're experiencing now, within the next few years.
HANNITY: What I was saying there is, when I add up all those numbers that I just mentioned to you... and I look at the Congressional Budget Office analysis, which for years was the gold standard in terms of predicting what the deficit and the impact on the economy economic plans are going to have ... and they're telling me that the numbers are not sustainable. ... That is a formula for economic potential economic collapse. ... You can't really fully, completely predict. But I was saying that in the context, with the texture of, these numbers are frightening.
TELEGRAPH: They are frightening. The (Government Accountability Office), though, has been saying for many years that our way of life is unsustainable. I'm not certain that this is a Barack Obama problem. I think this may be an America problem.

Rich Hill Deal Completed
As expected, the deal to move Rich Hill to the Baltimore Orioles has gone down for the very important player to be named later. Let's hope it's another Kevin Hart. The report is coming out of ESPN1000 and the Cubs version of Ken Rosenthal...Bruce Levine.
Re: Rich Hill Deal Completed
Has nothing to do with this post, but since there have been numerous discussions lately about the Cubs farm system and draft history, I thought you might all be interested in this article at Hardball Times:
It's an analysis of the general productivity of position players vs. pitchers in the earliest rounds of the draft--and it concludes that drafting position players early makes the most sense according to the numbers. Bobby Brownlie and Mark Pawelek concur. Tyler Colvin isn't sure yet.
Re: Rich Hill Deal Completed
Bye Rich Hill...had one decent season anyway...
Re: Rich Hill Deal Completed
I have to believe the point of this trade is for past or future favors. Hill wasn't sharp last year, but he could very well pitch major league ball this year and what we'll get in return will likely be a dime-a-dozen low-level prospect at best.

what a winter...bye hill.
Re: Rich Hill Deal Completed
Why not keep Hill into spring training? He certainly couldn't do any worse and if he does well, we could get more or even keep him. It is being reported that we will only get a low level prospect. I don't understand this move at this time. Also, why are we helping McPhail when he screwed us around all last off season over Roberts? I understand that Hill's pitching coach is with Baltimore, but all the more reason why we should have gotten more than a presumed low level prospect. I know it is for a player to be named later, but I think the parameters for the player are not that great.
Re: Rich Hill Deal Completed
hill's value is probably toileted in reality.
there's not much to build on after a horrible minor league send-down followed by an inexcusably bad winter.
the chances of his value rising when ST rolls around and lou/etc. have to find work for everyone is pretty low...especially since hendry/lou/etc. seem to want Samninja starting some games this spring.
Re: Rich Hill Deal Completed
Wasn't it Angelos who refused to part with Roberts?
Re: Rich Hill Deal Completed
I remember Angelos killing the deal...you are correct.
If people are really going to question losing Hill for a low level prospect, I propose this questions...Do you really not think his curve ball and mediocre fast ball are replaceable?
Good luck Rich. If you come back, that will be a great story...but I sure don't want to sit around watching you walk every mediocre batter when we play Pittsburgh and Cincinnati.
Re: Rich Hill Deal Completed
hill has a very low chance of ever regaining his form. And even then, didn't he only have like 2 pitches? He's completely screwed up in the head now. Can't hit water if he fell out of a f'ing boat.
And helping McPhail? Seriously? All I've gotta say is that I'd be super pissed if I were an Orioles fan. My GM has a man crush on his shitty prospects he had back in the day that all flopped with the Cubs. If I were the owner I'd be writing McPhail an email.. Dear McPhail, you are hereby banned from calling Jim Hendry without written permission.
Re: Rich Hill Deal Completed
Agreed TJ...exactly what i was saying last few days. If we got the perverbial PTBNL wouldn't it be more of an upside to find out if he sucks in spring training and get the PTBNL later...it's going to be bad news if he turns it around in spring training and Harden gets hurt oh wait he is..or Dempster becomes a pumpkin again!
Re: Rich Hill Deal Completed
Good luck to Hill, IMO he wasn't worth a spot on the 40 man given his poor performances in 2008 (demoted all the way to rookie ball) and terrible winter ball results (pelted with trash in Latin America.) I wouldn't put him on a par with Sudden Sam McDowell in terms of potential but it sure would be a sad thing to waste if it turns out that way.

The Cubs have released RHRP Scott Frazier (2013 7th round dfraft pick - Pepperdine).
A Cubs pitching coach told me in Spring Training 2014 that he thought Frazier had the best pure stuff in the organization. Absolutely electric fastball & breaking ball combo. Other pitchers would gather behind the screen just to watch him throw "live" BP. That's how amazing he was.
Got a chance to see Diamondbacks RHSP Zack Greinke (15-day DL - strained oblique) throw a rehab start at Sloan Park Friday night. Four of the first seven AZL Cubs hitters singled and the Cubs did score an unearned run in the bottom of the 1st inning, but then Greinke got serious and struck out five in a row.
ZACK GREINKE: 3.0 IP, 4 H, 1 R (0 ER), 0 BB, 5 K, 4/0 GO/AO, 49 pitches (34 strikes)
Eloy Jimenez grand slam tonight. Hoping Soler power returns and gets hot but future looks bright in the outfield regardless.
Have fun - It may be good for Arrieta to be facing a team that doesn't know him as well as the NL teams. A nice shutout would do wonders for his confidence. He is confident in public but baseball is hard and he could use a boost, I'm sure.
Me too. I'll be at the game tomorrow and would love to see Good Arrieta.
Last few games have been the April version of the Cubs that disappeared completely the past two months.
Hope they can sustain it.
Don't sell yourself short, Judge.
I love this team.
Looks like Mother Nature is trying to call this fight.
Hey! I remember this team!
The key for Heyward's offense: get early leads. Heard a stat on Mike & Mike on the way to work that his avg/power much better this year when the Cubs have the lead. And true to form he gets the two run dinger with Cubs winning 3-0 ...
I'm sorry - I was probably not looking at the correct line, or spot, or...who knows!
I could blame it on the weed, but I stopped smoking many years ago.
Fortunately, I can rely on the rest of you sober and astute folks to bring the correct info forth.
Oh yeah! It just felt like one for some reason.
Agreed. I was not including Fowler or Heyward.
I'm just not a fan of 2016 Coghlan.....
@Dusty Contreras if it's a Lester or Arrieta start. TLS is good PH too. You also forgot about Heyward, assume Fowler is CF.
I expect Soler to get optioned as well when activated and Cahill to replace Grimm. It wouldn't surprise me if Coghlan and/or Soler is included in a trade.
Maybe Coghlan is up to see if he can get on track before someone acquires him.
This move could also be to assure that we have as much OF depth as possible to maximize Joe's ability to rest players in September once we've clinched.
Maddon basically said as much...Fowler still kind of sore, they're being proactive, etc.

I saw this and thought of the quadrotor stuff mentioned in the minutes from the last meeting - thought some of you might be interested.
The first 'kinect hack' shows a quadrotor with a kinect mounted on it to do 3D mapping for obstacle avoidance.

Thanks for the link, David.
I did see this on the Meetup site, even though I didn't get an email. I just wasn't able to comment in time. I think Tom might be able to incorporate a Kinect on his quad. Mine, I think, is too underpowered (both computationally and lift-wise).
I had seen this before. If you like flying robots - including quads - you should peruse diydrones.com.

Vox Dei (Latin: God's Voice) is an Argentine rock band credited for recording the country's first concept album, The Bible. Its most prolific years were the 1970s, having recorded 10 albums.

Formation and early years (1967–70)[edit]
The band's original members were Juan Carlos Godoy (guitar and vocals), Ricardo Soulé (guitar and vocals), Rubén Basoalto (drums) and Willy Quiroga (bass and vocals).
Vox Dei started playing songs from bands like The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, The Kinks and The Byrds. In 1968, they recorded a demo version of Percy Sledge's "When a Man Loves a Woman", and Spencer Davis Group's "Gimme Some Lovin'". The company Mandioca organized an audition for them in the Payró theatre. The members of Manal and Almendra were also present, and a few hours later they played together. In 1970 they recorded for Mandioca their first album Caliente.
In the B.A. Rock Festival Vox Dei played the first part of the theme "Genesis", which had no lyrics yet.
The glory years (1971–74)[edit]
In February 1971 they released La Biblia ("The Bible"). Being the first Argentine concept album, it became a turning point in the history of Argentine rock; even the Archdiocese, that had asked to examine the lyrics, recommended young people to buy it. Right after the recording of La Biblia, Yodi Godoy left the band and was replaced by "Nacho" Smilari, and the new Vox Dei line-up began a national tour.
In 1972 they re-edited their first album and recorded the third one, Jeremías Pies de Plomo. During the first shows after the release, they recorded La Nave Infernal and a few months later Es una Nube, no hay duda. After Vox Dei para Vox Dei of 1974, Ricardo Soulé announced he would leave the band to start as a soloist.
Transitional years (1975–1977)[edit]
In 1974, Carlos Michelini and Beto Fortunato were recruited into the band and continued to work, but only Carlos Michelini remained with Vox Dei and released Estamos en la Pecera in 1975, and then in 1976, Michelini was replaced by Raúl Fernandez and Enrique "Avellaneda" Díaz. In 1976 they released Ciegos de Siglos, the last album recorded to CBS label.
Revival and break-up (1978–1981)[edit]
Ricardo Soulé returned to the band in 1978 to record Gata de Noche. Slowly the differences between the musicians started to grow, but they respected the contract that kept them together until April 1981, performing a Farewell Show at the Estadio Obras Sanitarias.
After the split, Ricardo Soulé returned to his solo career, releasing in 1982 Romances de Gesta, while Willy Quiroga formed a new band: Destroyer. The band toured regularly through 1982, and recorded an self-titled album that same year. Rubén Basoalto formed another band with the Vox Dei former members Enrique "Avellaneda" Díaz and Raúl Fernández called Rompeaces.
First reunion (1986–1989)[edit]
In 1986 Vox Dei made a reunion show with the classic 1970s line-up of Quiroga, Soulé and Basoalto, to present La Biblia in the Teatro Opera with Luis Valenti on keyboards. In 1988 released their twelfth album Tengo Razones para Seguir.
Reformations and Second reunion (1990–1998)[edit]
Towards the end of 1989, Ricardo Soulé the band left again.
